Answer:

C. The passage has a strong claim that is not backed up by sound  reasoning

Explanation:

The passage made a very strong claim at the beginning of the sentence. The statement that young people are an important segment of society is a strong claim and the main argument that should have been backed up by strong reasoning.

The reasoning to back up the claim was out of line for it had no correlation with the main claim/argument of the author. Therefore, the strong claim was not backed up by strong reasoning.

Identify the underlined phrase in the sentence
spin [16.1K]

1. The idea of alien life (proposed many years ago) has not yet been proven- Participle phrase.

The participle phrase starts either with the present   (dependably ending with -ing) or past   (dependably ending with -ed)

The participle phrase includes the modifiers or objects to complete the thought of the sentence.

2. (According to the letter) the wedding is June 25th.- Prepositional.

A prepositional phrase refers to the phrase which begins with a preposition and ends with the 'objects' of the prepositions that are nouns, gerund, clause or pronoun.

The pattern of the prepositional phrase follows by the object of the preposition having one or more modifiers.


3. Mikayla's homeroom teacher, (mr. Jones) is very proud of her- Appositive

Appositive refers to a word or a noun that is followed by another phrase or noun which identifies or rename the noun or word. In other words, it refers to the literary device which appears after or before a noun phrase or noun, used with a comma.


4. (Talking) is not allowed in class- Gerund

Gerund in a sentence functions as a noun. Hence in a sentence, a gerund will act as direct objects, subjects, subject complements, an object of prepositions or indirect objects. Every gerund ends in -ing, and so does present participles. On the other hand, present participles act as modifiers or complete progressive verbs.
